How to Cope With Slow-Moving Vehicles

Some vehicles, such as tractors, street sweepers, and horse-drawn carts, cannot keep up with traffic - keep your eye out for them.


Instructions

1. Step 1

   Look for slow-moving vehicles and adjust your speed accordingly.

2. Step 2

   Keep an eye out for big rigs and small, old-fashioned cars, which often have less power on steep grades.

3. Step 3

   Be wary of oversized trucks and older vehicles when you're entering traffic; these vehicles tend to take longer to reach the speed limit so you don't want to run into the back of them in your haste to merge.

4. Step 4

   Slow down or stop for livestock on roadways. It is illegal to stampede or frighten them.
